I was probably hoping for a Welsh branch line or something in Scotland. But somerset and Dorset would probably do me. (although tbh, I'd take...
I didn't think it would be much of interest to me, but after watching I was really excited by it. (And this is before we know anything about...
iirc there's a software limitation as well in that the 2 routes would need combining into a new combined file and redownloading from DTG (who...
Fine, I vote for Ivor. edit: Although, I just watched a clip and he's only got 4 wheels! It does bring us to branch line vs express train though.
I'm hoping for an LMS route (but in BR times obviously). But I'll take pretty much anything :D
antwerpcentral Okay, we've spent a while talking about what a simulator is. What's a game? I've played Run8 online with other people. People treat...
Different people expect different things from a simulator. (Yes, I'd think of Run8 as a simulator, also Derail Valley and the train sims by DTG)....
jayzhead You're right, the lack of a spring-loaded throttle on the RD isn't that much of an inconvenience. However, when I fly an A320 in xplane...
I've always thought it would be a good idea. It doesn't need to be as accurate as in a flight simulator imho (wind 240@9, temperature 14,...
Fair point Lamplight. I was just approaching it from a viewpoint of "I can't really see what's on the right-hand screen, and the HUD's not given...
schorni Interesting point about the font on the right monitor. There could almost be an option to just display 2 numbers one above the other, in...
I love that both the big screens in the 612 show information. I do find the right-hand screen difficult to read without zooming in (due to it...
I think that the Raildriver implementation on the 612 is possibly as good as it can be. The throttle/brake lever is pretty awkward to use with...
Matt said on stream that he'd checked the config files and that the new German route has rush hour enabled.
The only way that the 'consoles' point would make sense was if RD was the only available interface for PC users (and so there would be no way to...
I notice they are doing a North Wales preview for TS1 on the same weekend and it made me wonder if that made it more or less likely that TSW will...
Somerset and Dorset would be cool because it was probably my first TS1 steam route. It had the Black 5 in it as well, hope we get one of those no...
I think in the Q&A a couple of weeks ago, Matt implied several months away rather than "just about to happen". I like surprises though :)
I know, its almost as if (for example) opening the firebox and holding down the R key was somehow easier than picking up a real shovel and moving...
OldVern , that was part of my point. Some would say, "Derail Valley isn't a simulation because mostly it isn't simulating specific locos. You...
There's more than 1 way to make a simulation and what one person thinks is important for the simulation may not be thought of as so important by...
I really wish that the Steam wishlist had somewhere to add a note as to why I've added it. This is more for TS2022 (where for example routes or...
Thanks for the replies. I've got a Raildriver and the RD Ind Brake lever is mapped to the AFB lever, and that works really well (with the...
Okay thanks, although it does give you added breaking (maybe not as the wheels presumably can only handle so much friction). Thanks.
Hi. Been trying to get used to AFB. From what I can work out, if for example I am doing 110 km/h using AFB, and a station is coming up in 1 km,...
The best we can hope for I think is that community member(s) produces manuals. Interesting things like the brake modes don't get covered in...
Now that I'm admitting to have had a few issues with the tutorials as well, I'd add that it is complicated further if you have a Raildriver (and...
Yeah agreed, although it didn't need a huge amount I think. Just some way of highlighting the gauge on HUD and in cab at the same time and saying...
If we're being constructive, what I would have preferred is some description of what it looks like when the brakes release (in-cab and on-hud) so...
Nope, you're all wrong. It can't possibly be user error. Not after an opening post like that. That would be really embarrassing, so I'm sure...
Journey mode on the Dresden route is useful, but it does drop you into one loco before you have learnt it fairly early on I think. Before the...
Also, as we know, routes (and so presumably extensions) take longer to make for TSW and so will cost more to make.
The point of writing "an essay" for the suggestions page is that it is your chance to say why you think DTG (and other players) should care about...
How much would you be willing to pay for it? If it is developed and sold as a route extension then it'll sell less copies than a new route and...
How expensive do you think it is for DTG to get these licenses? Do you think that they're spent serious money or them or that it is more the case...
I'd like something a bit different (and JD seemed to imply on the Dresden launch stream that all the other German routes had been building towards...
Cool, thanks for that.
I hadn't heard that (although it could be true obviously). I remember Matt saying recently that a problem with locos not having a "home" route is...
Good to know. Out of interest, was this recently and what headset were you using? (btw, why did you upgrade it?) I upgraded my PC a few months...
Some great points Matt. I've also got a 3D tv and a few 3D movies. I saw one of the Star Wars films in 3D at the cinema as well I think. I've a...
For example, following Matt's Hl and PZB tutorial on Friday evening, on Saturday I tried driving the RB31 Coswig - Großenhain in the Talent 2...
Thanks for that. I'd tried google translate and found something similar. But, I wondered how that fitted in with the promotion of the route as...
Thanks for that. I've been learning about Hl signals this week actually. I'm at that dangerous stage where I feel like I understand them. I...
Thanks for the reply. I agree with what you say, but was thinking of it more as an answer to "What did I miss?". I've heard Matt P say that the...
Hi. It seems like a useful 'tutorial' for PZB might be that if PZB slams the brakes on, TSW was to explain why. I suggest that a 2D image of the...
Thing is, although it is only 7 km, the way that I'm thinking of it is that it makes the S1 route more worthwhile to drive (as it won't stop at...
The 'spoiling' comment was a reference to the Ambassador's Reception advert with the chocolates. And I've only watched a first intro video so far...
Apparently they are 'Ambassadors' (and are really spoiling us with their preview videos) :) But yeah, they get given a free key from DTG.
iirc, DTG can't share a full editor without sharing parts of UE that they aren't allowed to share. They built half an editor and showed it but...
Hi. Thanks for that. What does TOC refer to please? Also, any way to have the unrealistic stuff in a layer that could be turned off? Maybe...
Separate names with a comma.
